A Remedy for Anger

Anger appears when the world differs from our desire of how it should be. Therefore, anger and desire are comrades. The world will not change solely because we desire it to. The world has faults because these faults lie within us. It shaped itself to our faults. It’s gift to us, therefore, is to show us the truth about ourselves uncompromisingly. Anger comes when we are shown faults that we cannot accept. It follows that we do not need to lift a finger to change the world for the better. Do you believe me? We do not need to lift a finger to fix ourselves. Again, do you believe me? We need only be aware. What fault can thrive if we are aware of it? Awareness is a light. Awareness is an energy. Simply sit in awareness and the world will right itself. Be aware of what you can do. Be aware of what you want to do. This is enough. Awareness allows the answer to find its own way. Awareness will allow you to only do things that are within your power and, also, to accept the things you cannot do or do not want to do. Lift a finger because you want to, because it feels good. Honor yourself that doing this is doing enough. If it does not feel right, do not do it. You may feel like you need to do the work of all the people who are doing nothing. Are you angry that they are doing nothing? Awareness that they are doing nothing is enough. What would the world be like if everyone was aware? We would not do nothing. We would live - our actions fueled by awareness so that none would suffer needlessly. Sitting in awareness is enough. Do what you can and like. Wait for others to join you.
